Chandelier's Five Favorite (Affordable-Chic) Holiday Gifts

Chandelier has wrapped up some incredible events this year--and now we're finally getting down to planning for our own parties--and all the gifts in between. Here are some of our favorite gift picks under $100--we just HAD to share! 

FOR YOUR ACCESSORY-OBSESSED: Lana Signet Ring, SarahChloe.com, $98

Whether she's a classic prep or Brooklyn hipster, these signet rings are a no-brainer accessory. Available in script or block print engraving, a variety of monogram styles from a single initial to a trio of letters, and silver, gold or rose gold, this everlasting gift reads trendy-but conservative enough to become a year-after-year staple.  




FOR YOUR FOODIE:  Matryoshka Doll Measuring Cups Set, Sur La Table, $12

Need a stocking stuffer for your next dinner party hostess? These Russian Doll-inspired measuring cups look as cute on the counter as they are usable in the kitchen. This set of six dry-measure cups accurately measures ¼, 1/3, ½, 2/3, ¾ and 1 full cup, and nests neatly inside each other (space-saver, yeahy!). 





FOR YOUR FAVORITE GIRLFRIEND: Skipperling Mirror, Anthropologie, $42

Propped up by delicate brass butterfly wings, this little mirror is the perfect touch to dress up an vanity. It says sweet but not saccharin--and that's what we like most about it. 





FOR YOUR FAVORITE NEIGHBORSnowman Family Kit, L.L.Bean, $29.95

We are totally head over heels for this make-your-own snowman kit--complete with a wooden carrot nose, eyes, and buttons wrapped up neatly in a burlap sack--this is the gift that keeps on giving. I am planning on ordering a bunch of these for upcoming holiday parties! Add a cute tag and you've got an instant hostess gift for the neighborhood holiday potluck.







FOR YOUR GADGET GURU: Mophie Juice Pack for iPhone 4, Mophie.com, $79.95


This one is DEFINITELY on my list (ahem, hope you are reading this!). If your Apple addict is anything like me, he/she will be overjoyed to have 5 battery lives available at the flip of a switch on this nifty iPhone case. 




Happy holidays and shopping to you.

Chandelier Loves You! Our (Etsy) Valentine's Day Gift Guide

                                                                                Vintage-Inspired Locket: $24 (Buy one get one free)



Hey Lovers!

Since we spend much of our year helping couples find just the right way to express their love, it's only natural that Valentine's Day is one of our favorite days of the year. After all, that's when we get to celebrate with our own honeybuns. And like you, we find ourselves bored with the basics and on a budget. We're totally in love with the idea of unique gifts that don't put the kibosh on your gifting stash for the year. It's only February, after all!  

So, we whipped up a list of our top gifts from where-else, Etsy.com, because, well, we love it--and we love you, too! 




Hand-painted Dictonary Print: ($11.00)




Vintage Love Book Wreathe ($11.50)





Hollowed Out V-Day Book ($30.00)


 Boyfriend in a Bottle ($10.99)
